Kitty Craft, Temachii [control room]

Few albums evoke the shimmery twinge of late Nineties nostalgia as spectacularly as Beats and Breaks From the Flower Patch, the near-perfect debut full-length from Kitty Craft creator Pamela Valfer. On sample-heavy offerings like “Par 5,” the 1998 gem nestles into a Stereolab-inspired sweet spot between warm lo-fi hip-hop and melancholic Sixties pop melodies. Counting current indie tastemaker Clairo as a megafan, Valfer glides into Austin after last year’s break of a two-decade-long touring hiatus. Equally ethereal San Antonio songwriter Temachii supports. – Genevieve Wood
